Unfortunately, we can’t go to visit them, but we can make “virtual visits.” Let me explain: I can picture thousands of us praying for these men during Lent and asking angels to attend and minister to their needs. As angels took care of Jesus in the wilderness and in the Garden of Gethsemane, we can ask for angels to care for all three men. Angels delivered Peter from prison! Along with praying, each time we do something for them — write a letter on their behalf, post information about them on social media, or make a donation, that too is a “virtual visit”.

Prayer requests for Pastor Saeed Abedini, Amir Hekmati, Bob Levinson:

– Quick release

– Angels will be present and comfort them

– Good health

– Favor with the guards and other prisoners

– Comfort for their families

– Great sleep and peaceful dreams

– Enough food and water

– Provision for all needs and their families needs

Let’s commit to praying for Pastor Saeed,

Amir Hekmati, and Bob Levinson,

every day during Lent.

An angel from heaven appeared to him

and strengthened him. Luke 22:43

If you have already made a commitment for Lent, please consider including this Lent request.

Each year for Valentine’s Day, I offer a challenge. This year I would like to challenge you to remember those who are in prison by sending cards during the month of February. One idea is to send cards to a chaplain at a local prison and ask him/her to give them to someone who never receives mail. (Use your church address for the return address.)

I also would like to highlight three Americans who are unfairly imprisoned in Iran: Pastor Saeed Abedini, former FBI agent Bob Levinson, and former marine Amir Hekmati.

Three Americans today will endure another 24-hours in hell-like conditions in Iran. All three men are held against their wills as hostages and have no direct contact with their U.S. family members. All three are U.S. Citizens with distinguished backgrounds. All three entered Iran legally.” freeallthree.com

These men need our help! Picture yourself in prison in Iran. What would you want your country to be doing to fight for you?
